Change Details

The upstream [[ https://github.com/codemirror/lang-html/?tab=readme-ov-file#user-content-autoclosetags | autoCloseTags extension ]] works great (and by default) for Vue and HTML. It would be great to have the same functionality for the `mediawiki` language. In particular, this is deemed valuable to users of the #math extension. Quoting from [[ https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Community_Wishlist/W141 | Community Wishlist/W141 ]]: > Writing `<math>x</math>` quickly gets cumbersome for simple variables that you need to mention multiple times per sentence, so articles tend to use `''x''` instead. The number of keystrokes could be reduced dramatically if we had auto-closing of tags.
